WWE

Una nueva figura de cera de Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson tiene a los fans preguntándose en qué diablos estaba pensando el artista cuando hizo el trabajo, y muchos están usando sus redes sociales para expresar sus preocupaciones.

Esta es la cuestión, Dwayne ha sido hornado -o, tal vez no tanto- en una nueva figura de cera para el Museo Grevin de París, pero los fans del actor se han quedado bastante decepcionados por la forma en que se ve.

Algunos dicen que la idea de poner a Dwayne en un traje que grita "papá" fue una mala decisión, mientras que muchos otros aseguran que el tono de piel no es exacto... uno simplemente escribió: "Bro, es blanco".

Aparte de Mr. Clean y Pitbull, dos rostros con los que ha sido comparada esta nueva figura, hay otra persona con la que sus seguidores en X dicen que se parece más: Vin Diesel, su coprotagonista en las películas de "Fast & Furious".

Como ya les contamos, los dos han tenido problemas en el set en el pasado, que incluso llevaron a Dwayne a dejar la serie, por lo que algunos están augurando lo enojado que estará cuando se entere de que se parece más a Dom Toretto que a él mismo.

Rey Mysterio heard Logan Paul call him out after beating up Dillon Danis on Saturday ... and now the WWE Superstar is intent on making the YouTuber-turned-fighter pay in front of the world!

TMZ Sports ran into Rey Monday afternoon in NYC (he's hard to miss with the luchador mask!) ... and we had to ask him about Paul's in-ring trash talk.

"I'm looking to shut him up in a way," 48-year-old Mysterio told us without hesitation.

"He said he has his eyesight on something and someone, it's me and the U.S. title. So let's go! I've only been doing this for 34 years. I don't think he was even born before that happened."

Of course, after 28-year-old Logan beat Danis, he called out the pro wrestling legend ... "Rey Mysterio, I already beat you once, brother, and I'm coming for that U.S. Championship. Let's go!"

FYI, Mysterio has been the United States Champion since mid-August.

Rey and Logan have some history. In fact, Paul and The Miz defeated Mysterio and his son Dominik at WrestleMania 38 in 2022.

Thankfully, it doesn't sound like we're going to have to wait long until the men are back in the squared circle together.

"I'm hoping to see [Logan] there this Friday [on SmackDown]," Mysterio told us, adding, "I don't know if it'll go down right then and there [on SmackDown], but we will plan a date."

Despite the bad blood, even Rey couldn't help but admit Logan's pretty awesome in the ring.

"I have seen his growth inside the ring and he picks up very fast," Mysterio said, adding, "He's good. I'm not gonna lie. But I don't think he's better than Rey Mysterio."

Haley Cavinder's borrowing a phrase from another hooper who was pretty good at basketball ... I'm back!

22-year-old Haley, after penning an emotional goodbye letter with her twin sister Hanna in April, has decided she won't hang up her Nike's after all ... she's entered the transfer portal and plans to play again starting next season.

Cavinder's last run on the court was epic ... she helped lead the Univ. of Miami women's basketball team to their first-ever Elite Eight. The Cinderella run included an upset of No. 1 seeded Indiana, a game Cavinder iced with clutch free throws in the final seconds.

Haley earned second-team All-ACC honors that season, averaging 12 points and four rebounds.

Aside from the success on the court, Haley's also a star away from the hardwood ... counting nearly three-quarters of a million followers on Instagram.

Haley and her sister Hanna also signed an NIL deal with the WWE as part of its inaugural "Next In Line" class. Many fans expected them to join the pro wrestling powerhouse as the next step in their career.

Adding to the surprise of Haley's decision ... she made it clear she didn't want to play without Hanna, saying, "I started with her, so at the end of the day, I want to end basketball and start our new lives together, but it was definitely difficult for me."

Drake's wallet will be a whole lot fatter if Logan Paul eviscerates Dillon Danis on Saturday ... 'cause the rapper just placed a massive, $850,000 bet on the WWE superstar to score a knockout victory!!!

The "God's Plan" crooner put down the money on The Maverick on Thursday ... revealing he'll get back $1.35 MILLION if Paul comes through.

Drake said he's backing Paul because of all of the trolling Danis has done in the leadup to their much-anticipated boxing match -- which has included a slew of digs at Paul's fiancée, Nina Agdal.

"Never bet against personal vendetta and settling scores," he said of the wager on his Instagram page.

Paul was clearly happy to have Drake in his corner ... he tweeted in response to the bet, "Easy money."

Danis, meanwhile, was pretty pissed, writing in a statement of his own, "850 on my head is disrespect."

It all, of course, nearly didn't happen ... as on Thursday morning, Danis threw a microphone at Paul that opened up a gash near the YouTuber's right eye. Fortunately for fans of the fight, Paul said it didn't do too much damage, and the match is still on.

Michael Jordan es considerado una de las 400 personas más ricas de Estados Unidos.

Forbes acaba de conceder el honor a la leyenda de la NBA después de que dijo que la venta de su participación en los Charlotte Hornets a principios de este verano empujó su patrimonio neto a 3 mil millones de dólares.

Jordan, según la publicación, ocupa ahora el puesto 397 entre los 400 más ricos del país, solo unos puestos por debajo del mandamás de la WWE, Vince McMahon.

Se ha convertido en el primer atleta profesional en entrar en la lista.

Michael ganó gran parte de su fortuna a través de contratos de la NBA y sus enormes acuerdos de patrocinio con empresas como Nike y Gatorade, pero fue la venta Hornets lo que dio el último empujón.

Como informamos, Jordan vendió el equipo a Gabe Plotkin y Rick Schnall en junio por 3 mil millones de dólares, esto después de que inicialmente compró la participación mayoritaria de la organización en 2010 por apenas 175 millones de dólares.

Michael Jordan is now so rich, he's considered one of the wealthiest 400 people in America!!!

Forbes just bestowed the honor on the NBA legend ... after it said the sale of his stake in the Charlotte Hornets earlier this summer pushed his net worth to $3 BILLION.

Jordan, according to the outlet, now comes in at No. 379 among the country's wealthiest 400 ... just a few slots below WWE honcho Vince McMahon.

He's become the first professional athlete to ever make the list.

His Airness, of course, gained a ton his of fortune through NBA contracts and his huge endorsement deals with companies like Nike and Gatorade ... but it was the Hornets sale that pushed him into the rarified air.

As we reported, Jordan sold the team to Gabe Plotkin and Rick Schnall in June for $3 billion ... this after he initially bought the majority stake of the organization in 2010 for a mere $175 million.

Ex-WWE Superstar Matt Riddle seemingly had a few too many drinks during a plane delay earlier this month ... grabbing a microphone and shouting at fellow passengers -- and TMZ Sports has the video.

The incident went down at JFK Airport on September 9 ... the same day the two-time Raw Tag Team Champion accused a Port Authority police officer of sexual assault, which led to an investigation.

Our video shows what went down prior to the allegations.

A witness tells us their flight to Orlando was postponed multiple times, so Riddle and his friend waited it out by enjoying drinks at a nearby restaurant.

The witness says Riddle was becoming "incredibly obnoxious" throughout the delay ... being "extremely loud and rude."

Once it was almost time to board, the witness noticed Riddle walking around, yelling and asking when the plane would take off -- before going up to the gate's front desk and grabbing the mic.

In the video, Riddle -- who's holding a drink -- is heard asking fellow passengers if they're capable of flying the plane. It's all in a playful manner, but staffers were quick to put an end to it.

The passengers eventually got on the plane ... except Riddle, who was denied entry due to his state.

Our witness tells us he grew upset, asking "So are you telling me I'm not going home today?"

As we previously reported, cops responded to a "disorderly person" -- AKA Riddle -- but when they met with him at the terminal, he apologized for his behavior. Cops did not file a police report ... and Riddle was free to go.

Of course, Riddle then went to Instagram to accuse an officer of sexual assault and harassment ... but the post was later deleted. The investigation into his claims remains ongoing.

La ex superestrella de la WWE, Matt Riddle aparentemente tomó unas copas de más durante el retraso de un avión a principios de este mes, pues agarró un micrófono y se puso a gritarle a los demás pasajeros, y TMZ Sports tiene el video.

El incidente ocurrió en el aeropuerto JFK el 9 de septiembre, el mismo día que el dos veces Raw Tag Team Champion acusara a un oficial de policía de la Autoridad Portuaria de asalto sexual, lo que llevó a una posterior investigación.

Nuestro video muestra lo que sucedió antes de las acusaciones.

Un testigo nos dice que su vuelo a Orlando se pospuso en varias ocasiones y que Riddle y su amigo decidieron pasar el rato tomando unas bebidas en un restaurante cercano.

El testigo dice que Riddle se volvió "increíblemente odioso" durante toda la demora del avión, siendo "extremadamente ruidoso y grosero".

Cuando ya era casi hora de embarcar, el testigo lo vio caminando, gritando y preguntando cuando despegaría el avión antes de ir a la recepción de la puerta y agarrar el micrófono.

En el video, se escucha a Riddle, quien tiene un trago en la mano, preguntar a los demás pasajeros si son capaces de pilotar el avión. Todo es en tono de juego, pero el personal se apresuró para ponerle fin.

Los pasajeros finalmente se subieron al avión, excepto Riddle, a quien se le negó la entrada debido a su estado.

Nuestro testigo nos dice que se enfadó y preguntó: "¿Me estás diciendo que no me voy a casa hoy?".

Como informamos anteriormente, los policías respondieron a una "persona desordenada", pero cuando se reunieron con él en el terminal, se disculpó por su comportamiento. Los policías no presentaron un informe policial y Riddle quedó libre de irse.

Por supuesto, luego acudió a su Instagram para acusar a un oficial de agresión sexual y acoso, pero el post fue borrado más tarde. La investigación sobre sus afirmaciones sigue en curso.

Jade Cargill isn't wasting any time ... the long-running, former AEW champ turned WWE Superstar is setting her sights squarely on the biggest, most talented, and badass women in the world!

Now, don't get it twisted, Jade's super respectful of wrestlers like Charlotte Flair, Nia Jax, Rhea Ripley, and Bianca Belair ... in an 'I recognize your accomplishments, but want to kick your ass' kind of way.

"I'm excited to work with those ladies. They're phenomenal. They've been working their butts off in the system for years. These are the best women in wrestling in the world. So for me to even share the ring with them is phenomenal in general," Jade told Mojo Muhtadi on the TMZ Sports TV show (airs weekdays on FS1).

She continued ... "I want every single one of them. Those matches are gonna put butts in seats. They're gonna sell tickets. I mean me working with Bianca Belair is gonna be a main event match on WrestleMania! I think everybody can say that. I'm just excited to be here and I'm excited to work with such stellar women!"

The wrestling world was rocked on Tuesday when WWE announced they'd signed the 31-year-old wrestler just days after Jade partied ways with AEW, nearly three years after she made her debut for the promotion (November 2020).

Cargill, a former basketball player at Jacksonville University, was champion for 508 days with AEW ... and now she's after a WWE belt or two!

Jade says the move was obviously a major step for her, but the "entire WWE Universe made [her] feel welcome" ... and now she's intent on becoming a huge star, all while inspiring kids across the world.

"A lot of people would probably be afraid to make the jump. I made the jump because I wanted to create something for myself, a legacy. A household name. I want my daughter to look at me, just not her father, but look at me and say, 'You know what, my mom did this, and I can do this.'"

Former WWE Superstar Mandy Rose says she's raking in the dough outside the squared circle... telling TMZ Sports she's super grateful for those supporting her "lucrative" OnlyFans career.

Rose -- real name Amanda Saccomanno -- was famously booted from Vince McMahon's org. back in 2022 after racy images from her former subscription site were leaked on social media.

But instead of letting the scandal take the wind out of her sails, Mandy has since gone full-send with her sexy content ... and when we spoke to her this week about her adult modeling career, she was over the moon about how successful her new venture has been.

"It's been amazing," Mandy said. "Financially, I have been doing really well. And honestly, personally and mentally, I've been doing amazing. I have so much more time to spend with my family and just get involved in more things that I never thought I'd get involved in."

Mandy said she appreciates the opportunity she had with WWE and thanks the promotion for everything it's done for her career ... but wants her fellow wrestlers to know it's not the "end all, be all."

As for O.F., Mandy loves how she's able to document all parts of her life and interact with her biggest followers ... and, of course, the money.

In fact, she tells us she's helping out her family with her income as they relocate their family business.

"It's been kind of life-changing, I must say ... I'm really blessed, but I will say that I have a lot of financial freedom right now which is really amazing. That's why I'm so grateful that I'm able to help my family right now and kind of rejuvenate their business they got going on, and just continue with my future."

"So, it's been pretty lucrative, not gonna lie."

La ex superestrella de la WWE Mandy Rose dice que está haciendo algo de dinero fuera del cuadrilatero. Le comentó a TMZ Sports que está muy agradecida con los que apoyan su "lucrativa" carrera OnlyFans.

Rose, cuyo nombre real es Amanda Saccomanno, fue expulsada de la organización de Vince McMahon en 2022 después de que imágenes subidas de tono de su antiguo sitio de suscripción se filtraran en las redes sociales.

Pero en lugar de dejar que el escándalo la tire contra la lona, Amanda ha ido desde entonces a toda marcha con su contenido sexy y cuando hablamos con ella esta semana sobre su carrera de modelo para adultos, ella estaba en la luna sobre lo éxitosa que estaba siendo su nueva empresa.

"Ha sido increíble", dijo Amanda. "Económicamente me ha ido muy bien. Y, sinceramente, personal y mentalmente me ha ido de maravilla. Tengo mucho más tiempo para pasar con mi familia y participar en más cosas en las que nunca pensé que participaría".

Amanda dijo que aprecia la oportunidad que tuvo con la WWE y agradece a la marca por todo lo que ha hecho por su carrera, pero quiere que sus compañeros luchadores sepan que no es el "fin".

En cuanto a OnlyFans, a Amanda le encanta cómo es capaz de documentar todas las partes de su vida e interactuar con sus mayores seguidores y, por supuesto, el dinero.

De hecho nos cuenta que está ayudando a su familia con sus ingresos mientras trasladan su negocio familiar.

"Debo decir que me ha cambiado la vida... me siento bendecida, pero debo decir que ahora mismo tengo mucha libertad financiera lo que es realmente increíble. Estoy tan agradecida de poder ayudar a mi familia, rejuvenecer su negocio y continuar con mi futuro.

"Por lo tanto, ha sido bastante lucrativo, no voy a mentir."

Hulk Hogan is a married man yet again -- having walked down the aisle with his new bride, Sky Daily ... and the wedding photos are really something to behold.

The WWE icon tied the knot Friday in a relatively small ceremony down in Clearwater, FL -- with just their closest family members in attendance -- where sources with direct knowledge tell us it was not only an intimate affair ... but a spiritual one too.

We're told Hulk and Sky got hitched at their go-to place of worship -- Indian Rocks Baptist Church. Pastor Aaron Filippone handled the marrying duties as their wedding officiant.

As you can see in these photos of the happy couple -- they were dressed to the nines for the special day ... especially Sky, whose dress came courtesy of Rue de Seine's bridal gown collection. Her jewelry collection here is also top-tier -- earrings made of 18kt white gold, encrusted with 4-carat diamonds. Her bracelet and necklace pendant are made of the same white gold material ... and those too are laced with shimmering diamonds as well. 💎

As for the rings ... true beauts -- which our sources say are valued at $500k. BTW, that massive engagement ring Sky's been flashing is at the center of her band -- and it glistens a helluva lot because it's got more carats than Peter Cottontail can eat in one sitting!

Word play aside ... we're told the nuptials were lovely, and that their own respective kids were the only ones there to bear witness to this coming-together. That includes Sky's children, as well as Nick Hogan ... we're told Brooke couldn't make it on such short notice.

If this sounds like it happened kind of spur of the moment ... that's 'cause it did. Our sources tell us these two were itching to be husband and wife ASAP -- and that they simply couldn't wait any longer, being totally over their BF/GF label ... wanting to make it official.

Remember, the Hulkster popped the question just this past July ... and Sky said yes. This marks his third marriage -- and the guy looks like he couldn't be happier.

¡Hulk Hogan es un hombre casado una vez más! hace poco contrajo matrimonio con la bella Sky Daily y las fotos de la boda son realmente algo para contemplar.

El icono de la WWE se casó el viernes en una ceremonia relativamente pequeña en Clearwater Florida. Sólo sus familiares más cercanos asistieron y nuestras fuentes directas nos dicen que no sólo era un asunto íntimo, sino también espiritual.

Nos dicen que Hulk y Sky se casaron en su lugar de culto, Indian Rocks Baptist Church. El pastor Aaron Filippone ofició la boda.

Como se puede ver en estas fotos de la pareja (vestidos de punta en blanco para la  ocasión) especialmente Sky, cuyo vestido fue cortesía de la Rue de Seine colección de vestidos de novia. Su colección de joyas también es de primera categoría: pendientes de oro blanco de 18 quilates con incrustaciones de diamantes de 4 quilates. La pulsera y el colgante del collar están hechos del mismo material de oro blanco y también están adornados con diamantes. 💎

En cuanto a los anillos... verdaderas bellezas. Nuestras fuentes dicen que están valorados en $500k. Llama la atención aquel enorme anillo de compromiso que Sky ha estado luciendo últimamente.

Dejando los lujos de lado, nos informan que las nupcias fueron preciosas, y que sus respectivos hijos fueron los únicos que estuvieron allí para ser testigos de esta unión. Eso incluye a los hijos de Sky, así como Nick Hogan. Nos cuentan que Brooke no pudo llegar debido a lo repentino de la boda.

Nuestras fuentes nos dicen que la pareja estaba ansiosa por ser marido y mujer lo antes posible y que simplemente no podían esperar más.

Recordemos que Hulkster hizo la propuesta el pasado mes de julio y Sky dijo que sí. Este es su tercer matrimonio y el tipo parece que no podría ser más feliz.

Lola Vice is making her NXT singles debut Tuesday night, the first match in what the MMA fighter turned pro wrestler says will be an epic career.

How epic? Lola tells TMZ Sports she will one day be considered the greatest wrestler of all time!

"I am going to be the best Superstar in the history of the WWE," Vice told us flat-out.

Big statement, and obviously it's objective ... but, if there is a consensus, Hulk Hogan, The Rock, The Undertaker, and Ric Flair are often at the very top of the greatest wrestlers list.

If you're not familiar with Vice's story, it's pretty cool ... Valerie Loureda (government name) was an MMA fighter in one of the top promotions, Bellator. She amassed a 4-1 record pro record. Her last MMA fight was in November 2021.

As promising as her mixed martial arts career was, Valerie decided to go in a different direction last year ... trying out in front of WWE executives (and taking in WrestleMania as a fan). That weekend changed her life ... and Lola Vice was born.

"In that moment I got goosebumps when I went to that WrestleMania, and I saw this for the first time, and I spoke to Triple H and everyone, and I just knew it was for me. And, I'm just so grateful for this opportunity. A lot of people would kill to be in the position I am right now and I will never take that for granted."

Fast forward to today, September 19, 2023 ... and Vice is set to make her NXT singles debut vs. Roxanne Perez on USA Network, and she's ecstatic!

"I'm just so excited for the past year and a half that I signed here, I've been working so hard, I started from scratch. I've been proving to myself the martial artist and entertainer that I know I am, and tonight I get to kind of prove that to the world," Lola told us.

With UFC and WWE merging, we asked Lola if she had any advice for MMA fighters looking to make a similar transition. She offered a word of caution.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson knows how to make an entrance and he proved it in a big way with his surprise return to the WWE after nearly 4 years.

The Rock stunned the packed crowd watching WWE Smackdown at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado Friday night, when he stepped out from behind a backdrop to his signature song, "Electrifying," playing loudly over the sound system.

Everyone went berserk, cheering like crazy and shooting cell phone video to capture the epic moment. You may recall, the last time the WWE legend had suited up for a wrestling match was in October 2019.

After the initial shock, The Rock made his way to the ring, where former WWE U.S. Champion Austin Theory and ex-NFL punter Pat McAfee were giving each other some lip.

The Rock got in on the action, trading insults with Theory as the tension grew.

Finally, The Rock sent Theory over the edge after calling him an "a**hole" -- and even getting the audience to chant, "You are an a**hole."

Theory threw a flurry of punches that hit their mark, but The Rock quickly turned the tables and gave his opponent a spinebuster.

With Theory laid out on the canvas, The Rock delivered his famous “people’s elbow."

It was all over after that. Theory was down for the count.

Dwayne "la Roca" Johnson sabe cómo hacer una entrada y lo demostró a lo grande con su sorpresivo regreso a la WWE después de casi 4 años.

La Roca sorprendió a la multitud que presenciaba la WWE Smackdown en el Ball Arena de Denver, Colorado, el viernes por la noche, cuando salió de detrás de un telón de fondo con su canción favorita, "Electrifying", sonando a todo volumen por el sistema de sonido.

Todo el mundo enloqueció, vitoreando como locos y grabando con el móvil para capturar el épico momento. Como recordarán, la última vez que la leyenda de la WWE se había vestido para un combate de lucha libre fue en octubre de 2019.

Después de la conmoción inicial, la Roca se dirigió al ring, en donde el hasta hace poco campeón de Estados Unidos de la WWE, Austin Theory, y el ex puntero de la NFL, Pat McAfee, se estaban dando duro.

La Roca entró en acción, intercambiando insultos con el actual campeón a medida que crecía la tensión.

Al final, lo llevó al límite cuando lo llamó "idiota", e incluso consiguió que el público coreara: "Eres un idiota" ("You are an a**hole.")

Theory lanzó una ráfaga de puñetazos que dieron en el blanco, pero la Roca cambió rápidamente las tornas y propinó a su oponente un spinebuster.

Con Theory tendido en la lona, la Roca asestó su famoso "codazo popular".

Todo terminó después de eso, con el actual campeón boca abajo para la cuenta.
